    Great to see Nancy shares my vision that it would be hilarious if one of them dies on the house floor. Gotta keep saying this on here until the lathe kicks in. Mitch is getting close, but really it would just be even funnier if it happens twice.

      We should call it "Pulling a Ginsberg" just to rub salt in the wounds of the Dem voters

      Inshallah. Oh, great an merciful god - I would not be so bold as to ask for it thrice. But you know...

      I think the evil force keeping them alive is the same one keeping Kissinger alive, and once Kissinger goes, its grip on this plane of reality will be released and McConnell and Pelosi will instantly turn to a pile of dust on the Congress floors.

      multiple people have died on the floor and some where beaten to death by other congressmen on the floor and nothing happened to them; it makes zero difference.

        this is untrue. no one has been violently slain during a session of congress, Charles Sumner got his ass beat on the floor but was not killed. in 1954 Puerto Rican nationalists shot a few, but didn't manage any kills, and i think fash-infighting doesn't really count since they weren't members of congress or technically in the room yet

          by luck only:

          Brooks would later contend that he stopped because he had accomplished his mission, but witnesses say he was eventually pulled off the senator, who by that time was near death.

          using pointless details to obfuscate & disseminate the thrust of argument was a western capitalist trick. lol

            not sure what you're trying to say. how allegedly close or far a call it was is ancillary to the fact he survived & was in congress for 15 more years.

      Mitch’s lower jaw looks like it’s melting off his face. I can’t unsee it every time I have to look at him in a headline.

      Seriously why are we voting in ghouls like pelosi. These people are at the edge of average human lifespan and they want reelection?

      Really missing the old days when you had the sense to retire in your 70s and just run one of your failkids in the seat.

      FFS, the Kennedys and Bushs figured this shit out 40 years ago. What is Nancy's problem?

          There are at least a hundred sitting Congressmen worse than her. Zero reason to believe you couldn't just put "Pelosi" on the ballot and win on name recognition alone.

      San Francisco values

      A "progressive" who is 83 years old who is pro insider trading, anti anything for workers, and who has a ten worth in the 100s of millions of dollars.

      Having billion dollar useless tech industries on one side and a city of homeless people on the other. The side with the tech industries will complain about the other half but refuse to do anything to reduce wealth inequality because they hope they can all be genocided without a big fuss

      As a European who has been to San Francisco for 3 days, I shudder at the thought of bringing "San Francisco values" anywhere else.

      Even as a tourist I got a bad vibe from that place. Felt so unbelievably unsafe at broad daylight.

    She has represented California's 11th congressional district in the United States House of Representatives since 1987.

    This time she's gonna hit that big progressive button, but only if you vote hard enough.

    It would be so nice to see her lose and be ignored by everyone for the rest of her pathetic, ghoulish life. But that would be a good thing so it'll never happen

    No one wants San Francisco values. In fact, I wish for it to be as far away from here as possible

    the real sad thing is that anyone who replaced her would be just as bad

    SF has lost even the sheen of progressivism it once had, to say nothing of an actual socialist

    now that's unfair I have female relatives that age who would be far better in government than Nancy Pelosi. She's not bad at government because of her age she's been bad at this her whole life

      This. It's funny watching "left" libs froth at the mouth when discussing the advanced age of some of these politicians. Are the unaware that these people have been ghouls this whole time? While I agree that these animated corpses should gtfo, it's not like their replacements will be any better. A young Mitch McConnell is still fucking Mitch McConnell.
